Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) is commonly prescribed for women who have had a hysterectomy as it helps to alleviate the physical discomforts of menopause, such as hot flashes and vaginal dryness. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may also be an option, but it is typically only recommended for women who have undergone a surgical menopause or have significant symptoms. Epidural anesthesia and postmenopausal analgesics (PMAs) are not relevant treatments for menopausal symptoms.
